82 years ago today, Operation Overlord commenced as thousands of American and Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy in the largest amphibious assault in history. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to the cause of freedom helped liberate Europe and change the course of history.

As we prepare to celebrate our nation’s 250th anniversary, D-Day reminds us that the blessings of liberty have been secured and preserved by generations of Americans who answered their nation’s call in its hours of need. Today, we honor those heroes. We owe them a debt we can never repay. 🇺🇸

Signed, Sealed, and Delivered.

Trump 🇺🇸
